Anniversary

Gary and I have been married forty-seven years. Wow! I know we had a few skeptics in the beginning. I had been married before, Gary had not. I had children; Gary had only a vague notion of what those were. I grew up noticeably poor, while Gary’s family had enough money to be “comfortable”. I grew up in church; Gary had been to church on holidays. However, we shared a love of nature, a sense of adventure, a desire to travel, and a curiosity about the world. We also shared a strong work ethic, a commitment to honesty, and a yearning for kindness and companionship. It was a match made in heaven. I’m looking forward to celebrating that 50 mark!
